The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
The North Costa Blanca known as La Marina Alta (the High Shore) stretches from Denia, a busy fishing port and tourist town, south to Altea with its shingle beach and whitewashed old town on a hilltop behind.
There are many fine beaches along this part of the coast broken by high cliffs and coves.
From the high sierras inland from the coast magnificent mountains reach out toward the sea punctuated by rich fertile valleys abundant with orange groves, almond groves and vineyards.
There are five main towns along the coast of La Marina Alta starting with Denia on its northern edge.Founded by the Greeks its name actualy comesfrom the Roman goddess Diana. In the 11th century it became the capital of the Muslim kingdom. Denia has a large harbour and marina overlooked by a walled castle, originally an Arab fortress. From the port regular ferries sail to the Balearic islands. Seperating the towns of Denia and Javea (Xabia in valenciano) is the magnificent Montgo mountain rising to a height of 758 metres. Seen from the south the mountain resembles the profile of an elephant. The mountain has a significant effect on the weather in the area and contributes to it being an area rated by the World Health Organisation as having one of the best climates in the world.
Javea / Rafalet area
The port area of Javea (Xabia) is a working fishing harbour and yatch marina. There is also a pebble beach and pedestrian front dotted with bars and restaurants. Pirate attacks forced early settlers in Javea to build the main town 2km back from the sea and today this is where the old town a collection of narrow street clustered around the 16th century church of San Bartolomé. During the summer the square is used as a venue for a number of free concerts.
To the southern side of Javea is the Arenal with a sandy man made beach and many bars and restaurants.
The exclusive residencial area of Rafalet sits back from the Javea to Benitachell road facing inland with spectacular views across the valley to the mountains beyond.
